Quicksync no longer needed or is there a hardware detection problem?

[gene0915 37]

Using Debian 12 and Emby server 4.7.14.0

A few months ago, I moved my Emby server to a new box. Before doing so, I could have sworn that in the 'Advanced' Transcoding section, I saw entries for VAAPI -and- QuickSync. On this new system, I only see VAAPI and, it's detecting my CPU as a Xeon?

 

.... but it's an i3-4370:

This a bug or nothing to worry about?

Hi, you'll be fine with vaapi. For the latest intel hardware you  may need to use the 4.8 beta server for QuickSync to show up.

Sounds good and as always, thanks Luke!
